Torn

Chapter 5

"Lydia wake up ."

"No ." I pulled the covers over my head and dug my face further into the pillow .

"You have to get up ." I reached my hand outside of the blanket and hit the person trying to wake me up .

"Go away ."

"I've got food ."

"I don't care ." At that moment my stomach growled at me .

"If you don't , those babies do ."

"Go away ."

"Michael told me about Kian ."

"Good for you ."

"Will you just get up !" Ashton pulled the covers off of me .

"Just go away Ashton !" I picked up the pillow and threw it at his face .

"How do you hide that belly every day ?"

"Sweatshirts and when you eat a lot people just think you're getting fat ."

"You're not fat, you're just-"

"Pregnant . Yeah I know ." I got up out of the bed and went straight for the food . Ashton threw me my sweatshirt off the floor and I slipped it on .

"We start rehearsal soon so you need to hurry up ."

"Ok, I'll eat as fast as possible . Oh go into Luke's suitcase, there is always a pair of my leggings in there ."

"Why ?"

"Because I get uncomfortable in jeans and he just keeps an extra pair ."

"Whatever ."

"What the hell is you problem ?" He stopped searching for the leggings and looked at me .

"My problem ? My problem is you and Luke . I told you that you need to stay away from Luke but you two just go behind my back !"

"It's my life ! I can be with whoever I want to be with and love whoever I want to love ! You can't keep controlling me like I'm a child Ashton ! I'm 19 and I can take care of myself ."

"I really don't believe you can . You're pregnant for gods sake !"

"Really Ashton ? Are you being serious ? I never would've told you that I was pregnant if I knew would use it against me . I would've just moved to London and never told you ." I dug the leggings out of Luke's bag and put them on .

"I would've found out eventually . You can't keep things from me ."

"I can damn well try ." I grabbed my bag off the floor and walked out of the room .

"You wouldn't be here if it wasn't for me !"

"Thank you Ashton for always reminding me ."

-

"What's wrong ?"

"Nothing . Can we just get to the show ?" Luke helped me into the car and got in after me .

"What happened ?"

"Nothing happened Luke !"

"Fine don't tell me ."

"I don't always have to tell you everything ."

"That is true but you're always supposed to tell the person you love about your problems . We are supposed to help each other through them ."

"Maybe later Luke ."

"Okay ." The rest of the ride was silent and kinda awkward .

When we got to the house of blues it was even more awkward . I decided that I would be moving within the next couple of days so I had to make a few phone calls . I called a moving company and scheduled for them to come pack up my house tomorrow and I booked a flight for tomorrow night. I called joe so that I could ask him to pick me up from the airport .

"Hey joe ."

"Lydia ? Is something wrong ?"

"Multiple things but I called to ask if you would pick me up from the airport ?"

"Really ? When ?"

"I think I get there Saturday morning but if it's to early I can get a cab and go to-"

"No I'll pick you up and you can stay at ours that night and then I'll ride the train with you to Zoe's ."

"You're the best joe ."

"Yes I know . Call me before you get on the plane ."

"Okay I'll try to remember that and don't tell Casper . I want to surprise him ."

"Good idea . Love you ."

"Love you too ." I hung up the phone and sat on a chair nearby .
